The race to drive down carbon emissions is on, which means renewable energy projects such as wind and solar farms are surging. But they can often be a source of contention among rural landholders, whose properties make the ideal location for renewables infrastructure. So what compensation is available to landowners, and how is it being negotiated?
JLL Perpsectives podcast host Rebecca Kent speaks to Will Gurry, head of agribusiness valuations - Australia, JLL; Larry Susskind, professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and vice chair of the negotiation program at Harvard Law School; and Jamahl Waddington, head of infrastructure advisory - Australia, JLL.

The growing performance gap between new buildings with a high sustainability and experience offering, and ageing offices, is both the biggest opportunity and the biggest problem facing real estate investors right now.

Meanwhile, well-located offices with great amenities are massively outperforming.
In this episode, JLL's senior office leasing brokers from Europe, Australia, U.S., and Asia discuss the past year in office leasing, and what's ahead, with Perspectives podcast host Rebecca Kent.

Jeff Eckert, president, United States agency leasing
Neil Prime, head of large-scale project leasing, UK

Retail real estate, student accommodation, and the hotels and hospitality sector took a hit during the COVID pandemic. But less than five years on, their comeback journeys are defying expectations.
Respected real estate analyst and commentator Andrew Ballantyne speaks to Perspectives podcast host Rebecca Kent about what has been driving the rebound of what were real estate's most challenged asset classes.

Host Rebecca Kent checks in with JLL's head of research for Australia and New Zealand, Andrew Ballantyne for a download of what JLL's half-year data tells us about the state of real estate.
Business's sustainability requirements are driving a huge desirability gap between new and upgraded buildings and those that have had less attention. Meanwhile, most investors are sitting tight as they make new discoveries about the price of their real estate assets.

JLL, the global real estate services firm, recently moved its central Sydney operations to a new office at the Lendlease-owned Salesforce Tower. The office is everything research says workplaces need to be: it’s hospitality-driven, sustainable, flexible, tech-enabled, it encourages collaboration, plus there’s barista-made coffee, beer on tap and views to die for.
In this episode, Christina Khoo, who designed the premium space, chats to Rebecca Kent about how the office is being received, and the pressure of designing a new workplace for your own colleagues – and your boss.
